BenSapphire2011's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ariel]

Stick with drawing. Painting, if done right, is pleasant to look at, being soft and smooth. The face is so, but in general the picture is very lackluster and poorly done. Dunno what you did to make the face look good, but do it with the rest of the picture next time

ThePotatoGurl responds:

Thank you for actually no constructive critisim in your review. I mean, obviously I'm aware I'm not a strong digital painter, but really man? Really? I feel like I'm at least above a backhanded compliment like the one you gave me but I guess not. "Just draw better next time, or dont paint at all" isn't helpful, especially when you're essentially insulting me in the process. You probably don't care but it I really don't think I deserve two 1 and a half stars in a row. I know I'm not even close to the best, but you aren't even an artist yourself! You don't know how much effort I put into this, or how long it took, or why I even tried painting for the first time in months in the first place.

I don't even want to paint ever again. Thanks for that.

It took you 2 minutes to look at this and decide it wasn't even worth your time to be nice about your insult. I hope you don't do this all of the time, overly blunt and unhelpful words do nothing for anyone.

This is easily the most adorable thing I've ever seen on the portal

CuteNikeChan responds:

Aaw Thank you so much! > v < )/

[Transparent mermaid princess]

Upper body is exceptional (Though I'd prefer different apparel, like a t-shirt or something. I'm really basic :P)

But the tail is bad. Just... Bad. It honestly looks like an x-ray of a snake. The fins do look nice, though.

Could do with more detail in general.

CherryLolo responds:

Thanks for your critique :) it was my first time drawing a mermaid and some kind of skeleton :D I like It this way. I have found skulls of mermaids on Google that kinda looked like this ^^

[Happy Birthday, Maple Leaf]

It is my goal to become this

(Really nice work - I do love your art style, I just wish the general quality was improved.)

WooleyWorld responds:

How so.

[Medusa]

Pretty good, although... This design was already used for a Medusa character, Nadeko from Monogatari.

GrumpySheep responds:

Oh wow, now I definitely have to watch the show. Which one's the first season?

[Sci-Fi Character Design - Heavy Blade]

Because everyone is looking at the sword ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

(but no srsly this is kickass. I'd love to see a full coloured version)

NateDeCock responds:

Thanks alot! I did actually make a grayscale shaded version, but I canned it cuz it didnt look right lol. Flats it is haha

Fukamondo responds:
